no news in Col Brady's statement that Gen.
Malone has never rendered an account OF
his Disbursements or shown to his commit

NInrmurinrs have been heard for year or
two from c0mpleinan 6, chiefly candidates. to
he effect that thsir share OF the campaign
fand had been denied them in contests tor
Congress, the Legislature, ETC. Long ago
it was charged That Malone removed his
bank account from the state that all trace
Of his election disbursements might &c lost.
But Brady has in 40 direct sense charged
that Mahoue took any OF this money TO his
own personal use. only that be 80 bossed the
lob Of Distributing it as TO leave everything
relating to lie use in profound darkness.
Said lawyer and politician of Virginia,
who is here TO day, Brady may be little
clumsy in shape 81 we'll as little SLOW OF
speed. bet he is dreadfnly earnest when ne
starts in q fight, and may get give Malone
much trouble. Indeed It is already rumored
that Brady, oided by the republicans in
league with him, intends to Gle bill in
equity against chairmaG Malone, calling
for discovery ofthc amount, manner, &c,
of his disbursements OF this large sum Of
money which they claim YVES The subject OF

abuses and keeping in che x their corrupt
authors and managers. There is certainly
no politca! tribunal lie added before which
Brady and friends can have an Accounting
now. At the next State convention, how
ever, if they are strong enough, showing
might be demanded of Mahoae. Objection
on his part would of course DC damaging 10
the extreme, as both his political aud per
sonal enemies would draw all sorts Of in
jurious differences therefrom.
